Land use change can result in complex environments of varying habitat quality and permeability that directly indirectly influence the effectiveness natural areas for wildlife conservation. To assess how isolation degradation protected may affect long-term conservation efforts across range a sensitive subspecies, we used multiscale occupancy analysis, species distribution modeling, circuit theor...

Forest structural diversity is related to stability, biodiversity, adaptability and resilience, as well productivity of forest ecosystems. In this study, we characterized the diverse type groups in southeastern Outer Coastal Plains Mixed Province United States. We utilized data from 13,658 Inventory Analysis (FIA) plots across region classified them on basis group (i.e., longleaf-slash pine, lo...

One of the main challenges using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in forest data acquisition is implementation Ground Control Points (GCPs) as a mandatory step, which sometimes impossible for inaccessible areas or within canopy closures. This study aimed to test accuracy UAV-mounted GNSS RTK (real-time kinematic) system calculating tree height and crown without any GCPs. The was conducted on Cup...

the cypress family, cupressaceae, has a global dispersion. currently, endophytic microorganisms from plants are being investigated for their diversity and bioactivities. here, we aimed at exploration and characterization of cultivable endophytic fungi from foliar tissues of cupressaceae, i.e. cupressus arizonica, c. sempervirens var. cereiformis, c. sempervirens var. fastigiata, juniperus excel...

Abstract The Mediterranean cypress ( Cupressus sempervirens ) is an evergreen conifer that belongs to the Cupressaceae, which first plant family whose detailed evolutionary history traces break-up of supercontinent Pangaea roughly 150 million years ago. broad and deep economic socio-cultural significance species began in at least third millennium BCE. This interdisciplinary review highlights tr...
